Ring of Beara

this is a smaller peninsula than the ring of Kerry but it’s also a very beautiful one and highly recommended. There is a very nice Buddhist temple with an incredible view of the ocean and the seaside which I highly recommend visiting.

Dzogchen Beara buddhist temple complex

The river makes a very beautiful natural sculpture
This is the Tibetan buddhist temple on the coastline
As you can see it’s a very popular retreat. The parking lot was completely full

As you can see there are quite a few buildings here and I think you can stay here, something like a hostel
This is the main temple
This pagoda will be finished soon

Glengarriff

The river right by my bed and breakfast
The blue Lagoon
